FENCE: What Concrete For Post Extension?

- make some kinda clog (paper,rag,etc) and push it inside existing post about 1ft below from the top;
- insert a 2 ft pipe of less diameter, so it will move freely:
- add necessary extension of same diameter on top of existing post;
- cover the seam between existing post and extension with electric tape;
- pour some kind of concrete;
- wait before it bonds...

FENCE: What Concrete For Post Extension?
